Yves-Francois Blanchet, leader of the Bloc Quebecois, a corrupt group of cheese merchants who have zero relevance outside of Quebec, said on Friday that “He feels like part of a foreign parliament” and that "Canada is an artificial country with very little meaning." Blanchet later claimed he meant no insult by the comments, leaving the rest of the nation wondering just what purposeful offensive comments would sound like. Never missing an opportunity to further drive cultural wedges at a time when Canada faces great economic danger is a tradition in Quebec older than festivals losing money. Liberal leader, Mark Carney essentially dismissed the comments as did opposition leader, Pierre....something.
